another thing I would like to add is there has been allot of shuttering to since the pb thing started. half the people in the server would get really bad shuttering at random times all at once though.

Mods please sticky this. Knowing the "company" EvenBalance Inc. the issue is not going to go away for at least a month. They will try to feed us some *S like "update your client" blah blah blah

Does anyone have an update on this issue right now? Are we still experiencing the same problem as last night or has it subsided? Thanks!

Hi Guys,

my whole Clan has the Problem... it cannot be a clientproblem.

i think a dev need to contact PB to act as a substitute for the whole PR Community...


i will follow "Amish-Kommado?s" Ticket.
